My comrade?

Ye Jin carefully enters Min-Jun's apartment making sure Tigger isn't by the door. "Tigger, time to eat," placing his bowl on the floor, Ye Jin sensed an eerie aura coming from the counter above her and deliberately turned her head, witnessing the horror that was about to happen. Launching backward as she shouted, "Noo!", trying to catch the fallen glass mug. After successfully rescuing it, she puts back the mug with the rest of the mugs, and whines, "don't do that when I'm here," trying to relax her trembling heart.

By the time Ye Jin went back to her apartment, Min-Jun was serving the ramen into the bowls. She hurries to aid him. Setting them on the table they both thanks for the meal and started digging in. The room was filled with them slurping up their ramen. After some time, Min-Jun ended up waiting for Ye Jin to finish hers. Ye Jin awkwardly ate her ramen with the feeling of her being watched, "Ahem... What do you do for a living?" "I'm just a regular office man," Min-Jun answered. "Oh, nice," slurping the last patch.

"You?" Ye Jin hesitated for a moment and thought if he finds out that she was a full-time comic artist he would think less of her, "I'm an artist?" "You're not sure?" Min-Jun laughs at her response.

Before she can continue she receives a notification, [Boss Realm Activated]. She shoots glances up at Min-Jun who was also looking down on his phone, "If you have something to do you can go," expecting him to leave. "No, it's okay. It's just one of my games." "Ha...ha...What game?" she soullessly asked. "XX coral Story."

"OH," unexpecting shouted, "MY COMRADE! Hurry sign-on! There's a boss out-break." Min-Jun was taking back at the excited Ye Jin, and laughed. She looked up and said, "Sorry." "It's okay. I didn't expect this from you." "Yeah... I have been told that in the past..."

After K.Oing the boss, they finally relax. "What's your username again? Let me add you," Ye Jin said while collecting the rewards that fell. "Rex_Shi." Following up after checking on her character, Min-Jun was stunned, "You're an assassin?! "I thought you were the mage next to me. WHOA...Level 60! Respected." Ye Jin let out a laugh, "You can be there too. Dark Knight is also good. You have some nice skills too. I can carry you on some stage if you want." "Thanks!"

The sky began to darken, "I guess it's time for me to go," Min-Jun stared out the window, "Thanks for carrying me once again." "No problem," walking him out the door.

----Following weeks pass----

Ye Jin became overwhelmed with her mangotoon, and texted her editor, "The first draft is finished. Tried adding some action into her hit and run." Letting out a sigh as she finally was able to take a quick break.

**Beep Beep**

"Hello?"

"Are you available today?"

"Uhh... can I not?"

"We're short in staff."

"I get it," throwing herself out of bed, knowing breaks are hard to be true.
